When Ji Huai returned to the rented house, the mover had already moved things up, and the small boxes filled the whole room, and there was no place to stand.

Ji Tianqi stood on the sofa and looked at the small broken room. She didn't understand why he couldn't live in a beautiful new house. It was so dark for a long time.

She was a little unhappy, and no sisters played with her.

"We are about to start cleaning. After cleaning, we have to go to the supermarket. You can buy Qiqi the cake you like." Ji Huai walked to the sofa and leaned down to hug her daughter.

"I want strawberry cake." The little girl's voice was raised, her cool little eyes were stained with gluttony, and she would forget her unhappiness.

Ji Huai responded, "Okay, but you have to help clean up together."

She nodded her head, "Hmm."

The room was small and messy, full of dust and debris. Ji Huai asked his daughter He Tian Jing to clean in the kitchen, while he cleaned the room and moved heavy objects.

The previous tenant obviously didn't like cleaning very much. The kitchen was also dark, but the other party didn't seem to use it much, so cleaning was fairly easy.

Tian Jing also received a bucket of water for her daughter, asked her to wipe the small table on the balcony, and also gave her a small towel, which she wiped happily and earnestly.

"It's dirty here, wipe it clean." Her tender voice will ring from time to time, "here"

When Ji Huai took down the bags of trash, she ran over, grabbed the corner of her father's clothes, and took a few pieces of paper to throw away the trash.

Seeing that she was following, Tian Jing gave her a lighter trash bag. She picked it up in both hands, followed her dad, her pigtail swaying from side to side.

"There are stairs." Ji Huai had no choice but to take care of her and hold her small stairs.

The kitchen window could see the downstairs, Tian Jing saw that the first one was walking towards the garbage dump, and Ji Tianqi also saw a teenager walking the husky, she stopped walking as she watched.

"Dog dog." She hugged the trash, looked at the big husky, and walked two steps towards that end. Ji Huai saw this and was about to stop it, but found that the naive husky had her eyes shrunk and she was timid and active. Return.

Ji Tianqi looked at it, walked towards it, bent over to look at it, and muttered again, "Doggo."

Husky stared at her with a look of sullen expression. The dog-walking teenager looked at the cute Ji Tianqi, then looked at his unsatisfied dog, looked helpless, and pulled the dog back again.

Tian Jing saw her daughter stand up again, raised her head to Jihuai, and pointed her little finger at the husky. If she didn't understand her, she knew what her daughter would say, and she must be barking dogs constantly.

She likes dogs very much, especially Huskies and Samoyed. She doesn't walk when she sees them on the road. She can't wait to go up and hug them. It would be even better if she could ride.

Ji Huai watched with her for a while, throwing away the trash and holding her daughter upstairs.

The room is very small, except for a bed, a small cabinet, and a table, there is not much space. Ji Huai moved the small cabinet, put the moved sofa inside, moved the table to the corner, and left a place to hang clothes.

In this way, a space can be vacated in the middle for his daughter to play with toys, and the whole room does not look so crowded and messy.

I must not finish packing today. Wipe the bed first and clean it up. The sun is gradually setting and he can still work, but his wife and children can't be hungry.

The family packed up and went to the supermarket.

It’s expensive to eat out, so you have to buy ingredients to make them. Tian Jing pushes the shopping cart and Ji Huai is holding her daughter. They have to buy the necessary appliances and knives first, and then choose the ingredients to be made tonight.

Tian Jing looked at the prices of electrical appliances and knives in the supermarket. They were too expensive. She was afraid that she would spend five hundred up after she bought them. She looked to Jihuai and hesitated to export. "Shall we go out and buy them later? Wholesale market. Cheaper than supermarkets."

"The wholesale market is very far away. We have to use it tonight. Buy early and go home to cook and eat. It is not necessarily cheap. The price in the supermarket is acceptable and the quality will be better. I charged a rent of 6,000. , There are still six thousand, enough to spend a while." Ji Huai returned to her.

Tian Jing thinks about it, so she can only choose the most cost-effective one, "Buy the ones I want to use tonight first, and I'll go online and buy other orders later."

He nodded: "Yeah."

After strolling around on the third floor, the shopping cart was half stacked. The second floor was full of food. Ji Tianqi looked at the various packaged snack toys to coax her children. Her small eyes turned and turned, and she released her hand holding Ji Huai. , Put her small hand over her mouth and leaned to Ji Huai's ear, thinking she lowered her voice, "Dad, I want to buy candy, I want that."

She quietly pointed her finger at the pink bags of candies on the shelf, "I want a pig."

Although Tian Jing didn't look back, she was not deaf and could hear her naturally. Her daughter also said, "Don't tell mom, dad buys it quietly."

She had to admit that Ji Huai was doting on her daughter and she wouldn't let him buy it. As long as Ji Huai took his daughter out, he wouldn't hesitate when the other party spoke, and he would also protect him. He would come back after buying it many times.

"The supermarket can't buy it quietly, you have to buy it together." Ji Huai returned to his daughter.

"I want to buy it quietly." Ji Tianqi saw the good-looking candy again, leaned over and took it down from the shelf, held it in her arms, and looked at her mother in front, fearing that her mother would notice that she held it tightly, her eyes were round. Xiang Jihuai asked him for help, pouting, "Dad, I want this!"

"You have to tell your mom that you can buy it if your mom agrees." Ji Huai induced her, "Maybe mom agrees to it?"

"Mom won't agree." She pouted her little mouth, and her mother didn't like her eating this kind of food.

Ji Huai's voice slowed down: "Dad thinks mom will agree, and mom agreed to buy candy beans for you yesterday. If you are not hiding it from mom, mom will be sad."

Ji Tianqi was very close to him when he was young, because he spoiled him unconditionally, and Tian Jing was a little stricter with her daughter, but as the child grew up, she could tell who was really good to her. For a while, Ji Tianqi hated Tian Jing because Ji's family always told her that Tian Jing, a foreigner, was bad. She hadn't formed her self-awareness and had no ability to judge. She thought he was the best, but Tian Jing was not good.

When she reacted, she felt extremely guilty, but it also hurt Tian Jing's heart.

"Mom won't agree." She lowered her head, saw a packet of snacks again, reached for it and hugged it in her arms.

"You haven't told your mother yet." He disagreed.

Ji Tianqi: "Mom is fierce."

Ji Huai roughly guessed why she said that. Ji mother often said in front of her children that your mother is the most fierce, lazy, picky eater, and doesn't like to work, and doesn't care about her. He even said that Tian Jing was not as good as him, and not as good as his father and mother.

The child has no sense of judgment, and she may feel the same way if she is told too much.

"Why is mother fierce? Mom hit you?" Ji Huai asked.

"No." She shook her head.

"Mom loves you so much. You still said that mom was fierce, and she would cry when she heard it." Ji Huai hugged her and walked to the shelf. Tian Jing couldn't hear what they were saying.

In the past few years, the Ji family have used their children to attack Tian Jing. She marries away alone and has no one to rely on. She cares about the children very much. So Ji's father and Ji's mother are quick to talk, but they are actually poking her at her heart.

"Mom is not fierce." Ji Tianqi changed her words again, she still loves her mother very much.

"You can't eat more of this candy. Dad won't let you buy it today, but you can ask Mom if you want to buy it." Ji Huai wants to take two packs of candy out of her arms.

Ji Tianqi's fleshy little hands were tugging hard, and the pitiful refused to let go, and kept calling Dad, Ji Huai didn't let go, "You can't eat so much sugar, or your teeth will turn black and you will still hurt."

"No." She quibbleed, milky voice quibble.

Ji Huai still didn't let go, and walked out. In a hurry, Ji Tianqi shouted at the front, "Mom, mom".

Tian Jing was choosing noodles, and she looked over when she heard the voice.

"Kiki wants to buy sweets." The little girl coquettishly, pointed to the packaging bag, and said intermittently, "There are pigs on it, this, sheep and sheep."

Tian Jing put two bags of noodles in the shopping cart and walked over to take a look. The packaging bag is fancy, I touched it, it should contain candies and small toys, and looked at the explanation, the two bags are similar, and the children's things are not cheap, so the small one costs ten yuan.

"We can only buy one, can we buy a second one next time?" She looked at her daughter and said.

Ji Tianqi originally didn't want to act like a baby with her dad, but thought that her dad didn't agree to buy her a bag just now.

"Choose your favorite, and then we will buy you strawberry cake." Tian Jingfang said softly and slowly induced.

In the end, Ji Tianqi chose only one, the little pig that she watched recently, and she was very happy to tell Tian Jing that she was the most fond of pigs and that pigs could dance.

I bought her a cake and looked happy when I went back. Her chattering voices were all in their ears, but they were not noisy at all.

Her crisp laughter echoed in this small, crowded room. Ji Huai and Tian Jing continued to clean up the house, the other was cooking, and the corners of their mouths were relaxed and happy.

They ate very simply at night. They boil the vegetables and ribs in a pot, and then put a few poached eggs. They are not particularly delicious, but they are light and labor-saving, and they have sufficient nutrition. They are all too tired today. Tian Jing is still pregnant. Child, no energy to toss.

Ji Huai put a poached egg for Tian Jing and another for his daughter.

"Thank you, Dad." She was eating with her small spoon, took a bite of the egg, and looked at them purely, "When will we go home, Mom and Dad?"

Why don't you go home for dinner?

"This is our home." Ji Huai answered and explained, "Before you stayed at your grandparents' house, but now you stay at your parents' house."

Ji Tianqi couldn't understand, eating, "I want to play with my sister."

Although my sister will bully her and rob her, but she will also play with her. No one here plays with her.

Tian Jing listened, her feelings in her heart were complicated, and she didn't want to go back, but there was always Ji Huai's home, his parents, and she couldn't give up in this life.

"My elder sister also has to go to school, and you have to go to school in the future. Dad has to go to work and can only go back when he is free." Ji Huai is very patient.

Ji Tianqi didn't know if she understood, she nodded and continued to eat eggs.

Tian Jing came out of the bath and saw Ji Huai playing jigsaw puzzles with her daughter. Seeing her walking over, Ji Tianqi raised her head and looked at her belly, "Mom, is there a sister in there?"

These words clouded Tian Jing's question. She looked at Ji Huai, who was sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall behind. Seeing his expression, she knew that it was him. She sat on the bedside and hugged the daughter who came over. Inside, "Yes."

They were both daughters after taking pictures twice, so they should be daughters.

Whether it’s her daughter, she doesn’t want to give birth to a boy that will make the father and mother feel that he has the so-called incense, and she may spoil her, and she can’t get used to the other’s way of education, which is very troublesome.

She doesn't care, and Ji Huai doesn't care. It doesn't matter if you have children and daughters. You don't expect them to support themselves, but only want to accompany them to grow up slowly and grow up with them.

"Can my sister eat candy?" Ji Tianqi began to ask again like a curious baby, her words were intermittent, and her expression was a little bit upside down, "Cake, also, there are eggs to play with Qiqi, and be a sister."

She also wants to be a sister, because everyone else is a sister, she is not.

"That also requires my sister to be born, and she can only eat it when she grows up. Then Qiqi will be her elder sister." Tian Jing picked up her daughter, "Well, sister Qiqi should go to bed."

This title made Ji Tianqi very happy. She climbed onto the bed and slept in it. When Tian Jing lay down to tell her a storybook, she carefully put her hand on her mother's belly because the younger sister stayed inside, but the younger sister did not move. .

Ji Tianqi was also very tired today and fell asleep soon.

Ji Huai washed the dishes in the kitchen. After he came out, he put the table away and put away the dining table next to him. Without going to bed, he pulled out a chair and sat at the table.

Today, I spent 468 in the supermarket. He transferred the rest of the money to Tian Jing. She has always been in charge of their family's money. She manages money and will not spend it randomly.

"Would you like to buy a refrigerator? You can put things you can't finish eating, or it will break down soon." Tian Jing suggested.

Ji Huai turned his head: "If you buy it, you have to buy a washing machine. These things will be used sooner or later, so you have to buy it early."

"The washing machine can be bought later." She took her mobile phone, opened the shopping software, and said in a low voice, "There are no clothes. Buy it later."

They don't have much money, so if they can save it, when she was a child, she washed the whole family's clothes by hand in winter, but now it's nothing, except that her daughter's clothes are slightly dirty, and their clothes are not dirty.

Ji Huai turned her head and saw her head down, reaching out to touch her daughter's head, her eyes softened, and the helplessness of her mouth was covered by a small smile. He was very uncomfortable.

Tian Jing has been living a poor life. When she was single, she rented a washing machine in the village in the city, but now she can't buy it.

"You have to buy it. You can't save the money. What if you have a bad health, cold water, and a cold? That's not something that can be solved with this little money." His attitude is also very firm, and he will not give in. "You don't buy me Will place an order."

Tian Jing has nothing to do with him, how can he weigh it? She placed the order with her eyes closed. She would not consider whether it was expensive or not. She could only find some small brands and carefully compare the price/performance ratio.

The most important thing now is to have these appliances, not how good their performance is.

After looking around and comparing the prices, she chose a domestic brand, spent five hundred to buy a small-capacity washing machine, and bought a small-capacity refrigerator in her early six hundred. The volume is enough, and it’s too crowded to put it inside. .

After spending thousands of yuan on herself, Tian Jing felt distressed and continued to buy some electrical appliances, her daughter's milk, and food that could not be saved. A sum of money was spent, she was facing the account, inevitably a little uneasy, and began to reflect, "I spent too much money in the previous few months, and I didn’t want to keep a bit of it at the time, and I still spent it."

"How can you spend every piece on the blade? That kind of life is very tiring, buy what you need to buy, and spend it if you spend it, you don't have to save every point, the past is over." Ji Huai Interrupting her, did not let her continue to review.

I thought that the house was built and the child was going to kindergarten soon. She was about to go out to work. For this, she also bought some clothes and shoes. The money was not so tight. These were inevitable.

He can always take it lightly to ease her impatient heart, Tian Jing did not continue to say, put the phone aside, "I'm afraid you are too stressed."

"No." Ji Huai didn't change his face, but said relaxedly, "Isn't money just used to spend? It's not his own if you don't spend it."

"I still have to save some." She shook her head and leaned against the bed. "We all have no money now. We are all in debt even with credit cards. How old are we? We are poorer than young people who have just left the society, and I Now pregnant again"

Before he finished speaking, seeing Ji Huai sighed and looked at her, Shuqu closed his mouth, Mi Ye continued. He was optimistic and open-minded, but she couldn't do it. He hadn't paid his salary this month, so they hurried out, as if they were rushed here. To drag the family with one's mouth, who will not panic?

She has experienced the difficulties of having no money. Without money, she can hardly move. She can suffer, but children can't.

Ji Huai retorted her softly, "Why are we poor? We used to eat alone and our family was not hungry. We spent our own money on our own. We spent money on marriage, and the money for building a house is still collecting rent. That is assets, and it cannot be avoided. , It’s not lost. Didn’t we raise a human cub to two years old? This is a benign debt, and it’s still richer than before."

"Even if we are still so poor in the future, we will raise her up, and every additional day we raise her, we will save money on her, and she will be wealth."

Tian Jing looked at the sleeping daughter, and was persuaded by him, the corners of her lips turned up again, her depressed mood disappeared completely. The child is very expensive, and after all, the daughter is indeed a "small bank".

Immediately afterwards, Ji Huai said, "I want to prepare, and I want to change jobs next month."

"Where to jump?" Tian Jing was stunned. Ji Huai was someone who had no big plans. She was very worried that he was impulsive. Now they can't stand the toss, for fear that he will be under more pressure.

"I'm still watching, I'll prepare first. The company's earnings are getting worse and worse. This year's year-end bonus is probably all over, and overtime is serious. Last month, Cai Jie was fired, which is not a good sign. It’s hard to find a job. I looked around, and there was no suitable one nearby, or the salary was cut by half, so I could only apply for other positions."

"I have a college classmate in Chengya, and I know about him. I want to apply for a product manager. There are a lot of recruits for this position, but I have to start a new company. I first try to do a resume, apply for a job, and do a review. If it doesn’t work, stay there, just have one more plan."

Ji Huai did not blindly resign, nor did he blindly apply for the job. Instead, he talked about his own plan and thought well. He did ui design. Sister Cai is the team leader of their department. Because of the high salary of the old staff, she was suddenly resigned.

The company’s earnings are worsening year by year, and the first time is to resign these high-paid old employees. After all, a lot of fresh graduates, young and healthy, can work overtime, and pay more than five to six thousand people. Will do it.

Ji Huai only increased his salary last year. Speaking of it, Tian Jing is inevitably worried, his brows tucked tightly, and he chuckled relievedly, "There will be no problems in the past few months. Now that the workload is heavy, I can feed you no matter what. If you can earn a lot of money in a few months, you can raise your baby with peace of mind and take good care of yourself and your daughter."

"Well, I have time to help you look at recruitment and help you understand." Tian Jing nodded with her lips.

"You go to bed first, I'm still talking with him, after all, you still have to get mixed up when recruiting, and you have to be able to stay down." Ji Huai turned on the lamp, turned on the computer, put on the headphones, and whispered from time to time. , Tap on the computer.

Tian Jing lay down but didn't feel sleepy. He turned to his side and looked in his direction. The other party was sitting upright, more serious than ever.

She said that panic was also panic. Now she is obviously in poor health. She is sweating and panting when climbing stairs. If she is afraid, then there is no reason. With him leaning behind her, she knows that the sky will not fall.

As it approached twelve o'clock, Ji Huai was embarrassed to harass his classmates again, saved his notes, turned off the computer and went to bed.

When he went to bed, she found that Tian Jing was still asleep, so she rolled over and didn't ask him anything, just told him to go to bed quickly.

After sleeping, Ji Huai stretched out his hand to hug her, and said warmly, "Are you insomnia with anxiety again?"

Tian Jing didn't try her best. "Fortunately, I just can't sleep. Maybe I changed to a new environment, so I have to adapt."

He held her in his arms and took the initiative to talk to her, "Just now I learned more about it and asked him about another classmate. They said that next weekend, I can say it by voice. The university relationship is okay. I graduated. I have always been in contact, and I can ask him even after work, I will try to vote for my resume."

Tian Jing said to him: "I can do or change your resume for you."

She has experience in job-hopping. She likes to toss. She graduated with less than four thousand salary at the beginning, and she quit once every six months or a year. If she goes to a more developed company, she can successfully raise her salary.

"That would be better. Your resume will be much more beautiful." Ji Huai was convinced, put his hand on her slightly raised belly, and once again exhorted, "Don't think too much, don't give yourself inexplicable pressure. It’s not good for you or your children."

"Yeah." She nodded lightly, leaned into his arms, and changed the subject, "Will you get up to make noodles tomorrow morning? There are some vegetables left and an egg."

Ji Huai answered: "It sounds good, too."

She smiled and closed her eyes to sleep.

the next day.

Tian Jing got up and started cooking the noodles, Ji Huai helped Ji Tianqi wash up, tidy up the things at home, and then put the trash away outside the door so that he could carry it away when he went to work.

The sun gradually rises, and the warm sunlight shines on the dining table through the window. Breakfast is a bowl of noodles, vegetables and eggs, and Ji Tianqi’s bowl also contains her favorite ham.

The family talked and laughed, listening to the small talk and talking, to cheer for the face.

Ji Huai went to work, Tian Jing took her daughter downstairs and walked around. When she came back, while the other party was playing with toys, she hurriedly cleaned up the house and went to the supermarket in the afternoon to buy some vegetables, made meatballs for her daughter, and fried vegetables. .

I didn't sell much meat, so I had to keep half of it and wait for Ji Huai to come back to make it.

Tian Jing and her daughter were eating, Ji Tianqi saw that her mother hadn't eaten meat, and the little spoon was shaking and she wanted to put meat in her bowl. Tian Jing was afraid of her movements when she watched her, and quickly stretched the bowl over. The little girl has a mold. Say something like, "Dad said that mother should eat more meat, and younger sister should also eat meat."

She didn't speak so standard and fluently, and she played with her little head.

Tian Jing's nose was sour, she forced herself to say, "Qiqi has to eat more meat to grow up."

"Yeah." She ate a piece of meat in a bite in front of her mother, and then she ate a spoonful of rice, vaguely, "Eat like this."

She crooked her eyebrows and smiled, but she didn't feel that life was bitter, because she could still see hope. Today she had a bad appetite, but she managed to endure a bowl of rice and finished all the dishes.

After putting her daughter to sleep, she continued to clean up the house. When Ji Huai came home, she had already cleaned up the rest of the things, all the clutter was under the bed, and the small house was much cleaner.

Ji Huai knew she would save food, so he bought another catty of spare ribs in the supermarket. Tian Jing really felt sorry for the money. The more distressed she was, the less he dared to let her go out to buy groceries. He bought them back at night, all for one day. She fried and ate at noon, and cooked the remaining half at night.

If she eats less at noon, she won't be able to finish it in the afternoon. If they don't eat the overnight dishes, they will throw them away. Tian Jing feels even more distressed, so she can't save eating.

After a few more days, Ji Huai will also go out part-time at night. He finds a job as a driver. Most of them are driving for people who have been drinking. There are dozens of yuan for a trip, and there can be six or seven if the distance is farther. Ten yuan.

To make it easier to come back, he bought a small foldable electric scooter, which could be folded and placed in the rear compartment. When he reached the destination, he took the electric scooter out and rode it back.

Late night orders are a bit more, but he dare not come back then. Tian Jing will wait for him. Sleeping late is not good for her and her children. Generally, he will take one or two orders. He will go home and earn one. One hundred yuan is his goal. In this case, he can use the money to buy vegetables tomorrow. One hundred yuan is enough for a family of three to eat better, and he can also buy fruit.

The few thousand dollars left on Tian Jing didn't move much later. She wouldn't be flustered, and Ji Huai's salary could be saved. After all, there was a lot of money for post-natal check-ups.

Later, she didn't wake him up again in the morning, nor let her daughter quarrel with him. She woke him up after cooking breakfast, and drove him to work after eating, and then slowly cleaned up the house and took care of her daughter.

Both of them are busier than before, and Ji Huai doesn't have so much time to accompany them, either studying or doing part-time jobs. He only has time on weekends, but spends more time on the weekends to speak with his college classmates and learn about the industry.

She was worried that he was too tired, and he always comforted her. It will be fine after this period of time, and it will be fine when he changes jobs. It's nothing serious, and he doesn't feel bitter at all. :,,
